Bionic Freeloaders

For all your spamming needs:
That appears to be all "arthurboyz" does:
That indicates he gets paid to spam articles to get "free" advertising.

Why would anyone do business with a company that employs such parasitic and corrupt marketing practices? Why would you give them your credit card information? And are they authorized to use Lee Majors' images as The Six Million Dollar Man to sell their video?

I think I'll ask them.  Let me publish this first to get a url, and then I'll do an update...

This Day in History: June 24

The advance of a large body of Greek Indians, headed by a number of their most celebrated chiefs, and warriors, and a British Officer, was announced at half after one o'clock this morning by a most furious attack upon Lieut. ColQ Posey's light Company, placed for the protection of two field pieces, a little in the rear of his Battallion. Their onset was impetuous, and their numbers so superior, as to cause that little gallant corps to fall back a few paces, which put the enemy for a few moments in possession of that artillery, but immediately rallying under the Conduct of Captain Parker, [More]

Bloomberg’s support of Cochran puts gun groups on spot to justify ‘A’ ratings

That said, of more immediate shared concern for NRA and GOA should be what they intend to do now that Bloomberg has thrown his support behind Cochran. Will GOA modify its grade, and come up with compelling reasons for doing so? Will NRA rescind its endorsement and back challenger McDaniel? Will they do it now, today, and make their voices heard loud and clear, for maximum impact, and to help counter an influx of Democrat crossover voters? [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes mixed messages that could cause  a good candidate to lose, not to mention call some credibility into question that ought not to be.

There Is a Rose in Spanish Harlem

Here's a detailed job description. I can't open a related PeopleSoft link without enabling cookies, something I'm not prepared to do at the moment.

"Caught" implies they were trying to hide it. The opening could be related to administrative functions following Obama and Kerry acting like the ATT is something they have legitimate executive authority to regard as de facto ratified.  I'd also need to know if such a position has ever been filled here before and what those people did. While I wouldn't be inclined to jump to such "definitive" conclusions, this certainly merits being looked into.

Minority Gun Owners Share No "Stigma of Violence"

That make it all the more outrageous that he was on the receiving end of ugly insults, reminiscent of the vilest things screamed at Civil Rights marchers in the heyday of their activism, along with a pathetic attempt to dismiss and diminish his efforts by the media arm of the powerful and connected Center for American Progress Action Fund.

Cleveland Mayor Jackson’s gun diversion shows desperation to appear effective

Funny, though, how “progressive” gun-grabbers who scream loudest about “home rule” get real quiet every time a national disarmament diktat is passed, but then, if they didn’t have hypocrisy going for them, they’d lose their strongest suit. It figures this confederacy of dunces is on board with Mike Bloomberg’s Mayors Against (Your) Guns/Everytown for Fake “Safety” scam. Still, as ridiculous as they are, it would be a mistake to dismiss them solely by pointing and laughing at them, as richly as Jackson and his court deserve it (and as much as this goofy photo of retiree Jay Westbrook invites it).
